The government is working to boost security against hacker attacks after a pro-Russian group attacked Milan airport and foreign ministry websites Saturday in the third hacker attack in three days, Deputy Premier and Foreign Minister Antonio Tajani said.
    "This morning's hacker attack is the third hacker attack in the last three days," Tajani told the Senate. "Today's is certainly of Russian origin, an attack against the website of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, which I now believe has been resolved in these minutes.
    "On these cyber attacks against our system, I have already given a mandate to the Secretary General of the Farnesina to prepare a reform of the ministry to also create a general directorate that deals with cyber security and Artificial Intelligence", he said. "We are working to react with great determination to the cyber attacks that come from abroad. We are repelling them all but we will raise the security threshold even further for all the offices in the world".
